I'm a drummer who owns a guitar which I do not play well. This blog is a chronical of my guitar playing experience with Rocksmith.
I mostly play a Michael Kelly Valor II with coil-split humbuckers and a Fender MIM Telecaster (and a few others). I play on XBox 360/Live using a wireless transmitter. My kids play, too (Fender Squier Strat and Washburn/Lyon LG115) and I'll cover some of their Rocksmith experiences if they can ever stay un-grounded long enough to use the XBox.

Last of the Old Rocksmith Progress Spreadsheets

December 2013
Not much progress between March and December since I hardly played all summer. But, in the interest of closing out the year, here's the last old-style progress spreadsheet.

Due to the new scoring system on Rocksmith 2014, I've redesigned my spreadsheet and started a whole-new tracking page. Old songs from the original RS song list, as well as DLC, will be added song-by-song as I play them. For now, I'm pretty stoked about playing the new songs - but in reviewing my progress spreadsheet I realize that I've still got a BUNCH of arrangements from the original RS that I've never even played. It's OK - they all uploaded to RS2014 and I'll get to them when I get to them.

Looks like my last entry (you can't determine the date from this summary spreadsheet) for 2013 was back on April 17th when I was half-heartedly rehearsing for my 48th Event. That was after reaching Rocksmith Status on February 12th. After that I hadn't even bothered entering the Event 48 set-list onto my Event tracking page. On April 1 I was working on Master Mode for Boys Don't Cry. On the 9th I messed around with Born Under a Bad Sign. On the 10th I played Under Cover of Darkness. On April 15th I mastered Breed, rehearsed Mean Bitch, Between the Lines, Slither, and Sunshine of Your Love for Event 48. But, I never played the event.

Anyway, here's the final progress entry for the old Rocksmith scoring style:
